A pea, possibly a Dillwynia, or DaviesiaI can't believe almost a whole week since writing in my blog. Have been flat out with finishing off the APS Yarra Yarra newsletter, (& getting it printed, folding and sticking, posting), as well as working Wed and Thurs. Wednesday at work was as expected, horrendous........with millions of book/internet-deprived families pouring in and queuing to use the self-loan machines or ask questions at the desk. As usual the home page wasn't working so had an endless queue of people needing to search the catalogue, and thinking the internet wasn't working because the first page to come up is an 'error' page! Yesterday, the internet decided to take a break at most of the branches, but not on all machines all the time...........which made people think it was working, so they kept coming asking for guest passes to try another machine........as well as the endless queue to search the catalogue, and to change their cards over to the new one. I did have one interesting conversation with a customer who lived in Daviesia St..........now Daviesia's are native peas in Australia, so I just had to ask him if he had any growing in the garden. And he said he had been trying to find out about them, but couldn't get them at nurseries. So I pointed him in the direction of our leaflets on display at the front door, and said he might get hold of them through our group. Wish I'd had time to chat, as I thought afterwards that Keelbundoora Nursery (at LaTrobe Uni) would probably have some. Was up late last night looking up interesting sites on Daviesia's, stumbling across other interesting blogs (eg artist Gregory Pryor), and chatting to Annie on Skype about her blog.
